THE QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL LIVES AGAIN IN “A NIGHT WITH JANIS JOPLIN” FORT LAUDERDALE – A Night with Janis Joplin celebrates the queen of rock and roll and her biggest musical influences including Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Odetta, Nina Simone and Bessie Smith at Parker Playhouse on Sunday, January 14 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Fueled by such rock classics as “Me and Bobby McGee,” “Piece of My Heart,” “Mercedes Benz,” and “Cry Baby,” A Night with Janis Joplin recalls the singer whose unmistakable voice – filled with raw emotion and tinged with Southern Comfort – made her a must-see headliner from Monterey to Woodstock. Calling a June production at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco electrifying, the Mercury News proclaimed “Janis Joplin may never die. The hard-living chanteuse has been reincarnated on stage in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love. A psychedelic flashback to the glory days of the Haight-Ashbury counterculture explosion …” Created, written and directed by Randy Johnson, A Night with Janis Joplin is presented in further association with The Estate of Janis Joplin and Jeffrey Jampol of JAM, Inc.

  • The "Stars for Freedom" Rally
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Selma-to-Montgomery National Historic Trail The "Stars for Freedom" Rally March 24,1965 The "March to Montgomery" held the promise of fulfilling the hopes of many Americans who desired to witness the reality of freedom and liberty for all citizens. It was a movement which drew many luminaries of American society, including internationally-known performers and artists. In a drenching rain, on the fourth day, March 24th, carloads and busloads of participants joined the march as U.S. Highway 80 widened to four lanes, thus allowing a greater volume of participants than the court- imposed 300-person limitation when the roadway was narrower. There were many well-known celebrities among the more than 25,000 persons camped on the 36-acre grounds of the City of St. Jude, a Catholic social services complex which included a school, hospital, and other service facilities, located within the Washington Park neighborhood. This fourth campsite, situated on a rain-soaked playing field, held a flatbed trailer that served as a stage and a host of famous participants that provided the scene for an inspirational performance enjoyed by thousands on the dampened grounds. The event was organized and coordinated by the internationally acclaimed activist and screen star Harry Belafonte, on the evening of March 24, 1965. The night "the Stars" came out in Alabama Mr. Belafonte had been an acquaintance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. since 1956. He later raised thousands of dollars in funding support for the Freedom Riders and to bailout many protesters incarcerated during the era, including Dr.
